Ministry of Love (CC002):   

This ministry is of great value to all at First Baptist.  It involves helping those of us during and after surgeries, illness and sometimes just because.  Whether it involves taking a meal, volunteering to mow a lawn, or giving someone a ride to the doctors office, we all can use a little help now and then.  If you like to cook or could give someone a lift now and then please consider volunteering.

Funeral Dinners (CC003): 

Providing a meal and a place to gather during the loss of a loved one offers a great comfort to the family.   Here at First Baptist this is handled by our American Baptist Women groups.  If you feel led to help out with providing food or working, then please feel free to volunteer and we will get you on the volunteer list.

Visitation (CC004): 

Sometimes when you are sick or cant get out like you want, a visit from a fellow church member is like sunshine.  Visiting shut-ins, those in the hospital or people that just need to see a kind and smiling face is a valuable ministry.  And it makes you feel good too!  If you would like to join this ministry please contact us.
